It’s time for the 10th installment of the superhero serial we’ve been riffing for at least that many years! Time marches on, empires rise and fall, the oceans reshape the continents, and our plucky crew continues to drag out the mystery of which boring guy might be the Scorpion in the Adventures of Captain Marvel: Doom Ship!
When we first saw Doom Ship in the title, we assumed that must be the codename of a wood-paneled office or old-timey roadster, as those are pretty much the only locations featured in this serial so far. Boy were we surprised to see this episode contains actual seafaring! Well, seafaring on a fake boat in a studio swimming pool, but still, it’s something! There’s even water! Actual splashes of actual water! Shazam!
Yes, the quest for a… lens? Is that what this is all about?... takes our heroes out on the open sea, where they face a storm. Did the nefarious Scorpion create this storm? No, it’s just a storm, the Scorpion’s not that powerful, sort of just a guy with a hood really. Nonetheless, it’s action-packed, and at one point you get to see Billy Batson throw some punches and tackle a chair! To reiterate: Shazam!
Join Mike, Kevin and Bill for what is absolutely, undeniably the 10th episode of the Adventures of Captain Marvel: Doom Ship!
